Now that the United States courts have re-
fused to permit interference with the con-
struction of the Staten Island Bridge there is
promise that the work will be pushed forward
promptly. This will be welcome news to
those interested in the increase of terminal
facilities at this pert; however mach 1t may
displease some property Owners in New-Jersey.
Only two votes were recorded In tho
Georgia Legislature yesterday against thc
passage of the bill makrng it penal offence
to teach white and colored children in the
same school. 1t would take a very powerful
magnifyipg glass to find any spirit OF tho
"New South in this performance. Indeed,
it is a strong reminder Of the times when
the negro was a bondman; and 1t Is highly
discreditabe to Georgia.
The practice Of drawing pay from the city
without doing full work has been so common
that employment Is sought in the municipal
service with that end In view. An order from
the Board Of Health to the effect that san
itary inspectors must give their fall time to
the city during business hours has led to a
number of designations. This is an indica-
ton of new order OF things, the credit for
which is due to Mayor Hewitt
II is not to be expected that the Democrats
will acknowledge defeat In kentucky, pro
yid ed they can manipulate the returns In any
way to retain control Of the State. But the
returns, so far as received, indicate Repub-
lican plurality, which the Republica State
Committee estimates at 10000 The
Democrats are in an Gcitabie state
of mind. and six men have been
killed and a score wounded in one fight

favorable to honest returns, particularly rs
the Democrats have everything in their own
bands: hence, it will be hard work for the
Republican and Labor candidates TO prevents
fraud.
The Liberal Unionist cause is evidently on
tho wane in Great Britain. The reverse 1t
met yesterday in the Bridgeton div sion OF
Glasgow was the worst blow it has yet ex-
perienced. its candidate against Sir George
Otto Trevelyan was not only defeated, but
he fell 214 votes behind the number polled
by that side at the previous election, while
the Gladstonian vote was increased by $50.
This is the first direct contest between q
Gladstonian and Liberal-Unionist and moth
ing was left undone on either side to bring
ont the voters. The result Is gratifying to the
friends of Ireland, rs 1t confirms beyond
aoubt the belief that public opinion In Eng
land and Scotland is growing more favorable
TO Home Rule legislation.
The folly Of intrusting the care OF parks
to men chosen for partisan reasons is striking
~ apparent in Brooklyn. II it had not been
fm the force of public opinion, aroused by
Tho press. some Of the fne groves would have
been ruined by the incompetent Commission
eu. Arrested in that work. they set ont in

exhansting their appropriation for the entire
